Last weekend, we had an unusually quiet weekend, just the three of us. We wanted to explore Raleigh and decided to go downtown to a chili cook-off on Saturday. It was sponsored by one of the local bars and featured 6 chilies from various local restaurants. There was also a beer garden and a live band. It was a really nice day and the chili was pretty good!

After we finished our chili, we walked around downtown Raleigh and visited the Big Acorn in Moore Square. Raleigh is the City of Oaks! The Big Acorn is moved from the park and "dropped" every New Year's Eve at midnight during the First Night Raleigh celebration. So far, we've really enjoyed our time in Raleigh and look forward to spring in North Carolina.
